I'm in the same boat as you two. I left my driver in my shed, that way I can't be tempted. I hit an 8i layup off a Par 5 tee yesterday and would have been on in regulation had I not done the unthinkable and chunked my subsequent 3w shot straight into the pond (dropped and hit the 3w over the pond and right down the middle after that, leaving an easy 9i onto the green). With the driver keeping the lawnmower company, I managed to hit 10/13 fairways with the 5w not visiting the trees once. Shot a 92 in the end.
